- Can others edit my Photos

I'm having trouble knowing when I have oversharpened an image. I know this is going to be a subjective answer, but how do I know when my image is 'too sharp'?
Here is my sharpening process:
1. lightroom sharpening between 40-60 with masking so it's applied to mainly edges
2. High pass filter in photoshop, somewhere between 1.0-2.0
3. when exporting it from lightroom I leave output sharpening checked for screen, standard amount.
Does that seem like to much? I guess it's a picture by picture thing so I'll post my most recent one. What process do you guys use? It also seems like some sites add their own sharpening algorithm when resizing photos like tumblr and flickr, further adding confusion for me.
Also, I've never printed a photo before, I always hear that printing requires a different type/amount of sharpening? How do I sharpen a photo if I were to print it?
